With the Budget submission window now open, Clive outlines the three priorities on the table: hotel levy, APD and rail investment. Elsewhere, a working group on ADMs is delivery real progress between airlines and TMCs, with content parity talks following next week. There's also fresh momentum on the APJC front with IATA and the new rail working group forming around European rail and Eurotunnel expansion.

Clive's been all over the airwaves discussing Heathrow drop-off charges, following RAC research into rising costs for the travelling public, while Andrew unpacks Edinburgh's new 5% hotel levy and what a similar set-fee model could mean for English cities. The pair also reflect on the Sustainability Conference, where buyer and industry voices explored SAF progress, ESG and accessibility, before looking ahead to a packed autumn — including the Mobility Conference and the eagerly-anticipated Autumn Conference in Alicante, now nearing capacity.

    The BTA Pulse | Border Chaos, Major Conference News and Big Changes in Business Travel

    Send us Fan Mail Welcome to The BTA Podcast.  In these podcasts we will endeavour to share our thoughts, concerns, optimism and build those all-important human connections with our Partners, Members and Guests. Episode Overview: In this episode of The BTA Pulse, hosts Clive Wratten and Andrew Clarke bring you the latest from the Business Travel Association — because summer or not, business travel cracks on. Top of the agenda is the continued frustration around EES at European borders, along with the news that ETIAS — the €20 pre-travel authorisation — has been delayed into Q1 next year. With leisure travellers about to swell the summer queues, Clive and Andrew explain why the BTA is keeping business travellers' voices front and centre, from media interviews to ongoing calls with the DfT. Attention then turns to the 2026 Conference in Alicante, with headline speakers now confirmed: political journalist Steve Richards returns with his unique take on British politics, adventurer Bonita Norris shares her remarkable story of resilience, and Lloyd Figgins delivers an update on the increasingly complex world of travel risk. Elsewhere, the pair discuss our Sustainability Conference, a refreshed approach to the BTA's social channels, accreditation momentum with 10 members now on board, a brand-new partner board about to be unveiled, and the accessibility group's second members-only paper. And with England facing Argentina in the World Cup semi-final, there's cautious optimism in the air. Fifty-fifty, apparently.
